What you get
About this experience
Nathan is a professional portrait photographer by trade, which is something you’d be hard pressed to find on any other Aurora tour in Fairbanks. He was a full time wedding photographer for 10 years before becoming an aurora portrait photographer, which he's done for over 7 years. Other tours offer “free portraits” but not to the level of expertise that Nathan provides. He uses controlled supplemental studio lighting to achieve unmatched quality and sharpness, using techniques he developed over 7 years of practicing aurora portraiture. We also provide complementary gear to help keep you warm and safe: hand/toe warmers, headlamps, water bottles etc. What everything boils down to is great photos and a personal experience. The photos speak for themselves and we want to get you some of your own. Not only will you have a top tier photographer as a guide but Nathan also has more than 20 years of Alaska artic wilderness survival skills and offers expertise in all things Alaska adventure.

Amazing tour guide and photographer!
Not only were we graced by the lights, but Nathan captured us in stunning photos so we weren’t stressing over figuring out our cameras. Nathan was a fantastic tour guide and photographer! The hot pizzas and cookies on a cold night were a treat too. We took another aurora tour with a different provider the night before and were in a huge group crammed into a tight cabin with light coming out of it and people flashing their flashlights in our eyes while they tried to figure out their cameras to capture the lights. Instead, Electric Moose provided a very small group of only 10 people, so it felt like hanging out with a few friends, and Nathan had individual time with each of us to capture all sorts of gorgeous pics in his expertly-located remote secret spot where there was minimal light and beautiful scenery that made our pics stunning. Nathan was so enthusiastic it was contagious. Our group was sharing pics and marveling at the lights together all night and although the temps were low and winds high, Nathan’s heated tent provided the perfect toasty warming shelter. We woke up later in the day to the spectacular album of pics. This tour made for a once-in-a-lifetime night for us and we absolutely recommend it!

Great time with Nathan.
It was a great experience. Cold and windy night, and Nathan took care of us. Very knowledgable. Great pics. We had great aurora that night. He knew were to go for the great views. He was pretty excited about what we saw that night too. Highly recommend.

An excellent tour!
An amazing tour! Nathan was knowledgeable and funny while discussing the science behind the northern lights. Enjoyed the small tour group. We were all comfy, cozy and warm in his tent. We saw an amazing light show and have wonderful professional pictures to show off.

Such an amazing experience and a great tour guide!
Nathan came get prepared, with us sitting in an ice fishing tent, pizza oven, hand and toe warmers, etc. he was very knowledgeable about the northern lights, conditions, how it happens, and more. He also took incredible pictures of us, both with light painting and with the Aurora borealis. We had a wonderful experience. I couldn't recommend this tour enough

Excellent night and guide!
Nathan works hard to give you a great small group experience. I don’t see how anyone could do better. I have to admit, at the beginning of the night, I was a little skeptical because Aurora was faint to the naked eye and I was more concerned with what I could see than photos, BUT after hot pizza in his warming tent, Aurora became more and more intense and put on some amazing, almost continuous displays!! AND we got our professional pics the next morning. He obviously loves his job and I highly recommend this tour!!

Why this scores 81
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Electric Moose Studios Aurora Adventure W/Portraits & Hot Pizza!!: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Fairbanks.
How much does Electric Moose Studios Aurora Adventure W/Portraits & Hot Pizza!! cost?
+
Prices start at $308 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Fairbanks usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Electric Moose Studios Aurora Adventure W/Portraits & Hot Pizza!! take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Fairbanks is not rushed.
Is Electric Moose Studios Aurora Adventure W/Portraits & Hot Pizza!! worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 81 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 244 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Fairbanks, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Electric Moose Studios Aurora Adventure W/Portraits & Hot Pizza!!?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Electric Moose Studios Aurora Adventure W/Portraits & Hot Pizza!! suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Electric Moose Studios Aurora Adventure W/Portraits & Hot Pizza!!?
+
Around 85 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Fairbanks can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Fairbanks and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Electric Moose Studios Aurora Adventure W/Portraits & Hot Pizza!! start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Fairbanks within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Fairbanks?
+
Fairbanks is the aurora capital of interior Alaska: heated viewing lodges, late-night chase tours, Arctic Circle day drives up the Dalton Highway, dog sledding and summer riverboat cruises. On Outty we rank every Fairbanks experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Northern Lights - Aurora with FREE Photos - Arctic Night Tours, Dog Sledding and Mushing Experience in North Pole, Fairbanks Ice Fishing Expedition in a Heated Cabin with Fish Cookout. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Fairbanks?
+
Late August to April for aurora, June to August for midnight-sun river trips. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Fairbanks?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
